    Makes sense to me after the changes bluepoint made to demons souls ruining some of the visual storytelling, though a direct port plus 60 fps would be fine

      What changes? I tried a quick search and didn’t find anything about those, can you elaborate?

        Off the top of my head the workers in the mine had their scales removed which implied they were turning in to Crystal lizards, flame Lurkers controversy which was changed between the trailer and release, the fat boss with a bird in his head was changed but I can’t remember what, maneaters and prison bell ringers were pretty significantly overhauled.

        They are details which seem small and don’t affect gameplay but affect the lore which Miyazaki clearly cares a lot about

          Thanks for the info, appreciated. Considering the widespread love for fromsoft style visual storytelling I wonder why that was even done. Cost cutting/time savings maybe?

            Figure bluepoint artists taking their liberties which is fine from their end it’s their work, but it isn’t universally appreciated. (I really enjoyed the remake)
